Thus, infertile spouses become the mother and father of their own son or daughter, who possesses their genetic set of chromosomes, and the surrogate mother, in turn, receives a worthy financial reward. In addition, during the entire gestation period, the gestational courier is also paid wages. In this article we will tell you how you can become a surrogate mother in Russia and Ukraine, and what documents you need for this.
How can I become a surrogate mother?
Surrogate motherhood has a certain legislative base. In particular, the government of each state establishes requirements that must be met by a woman claiming the role of a gestational courier, a list of diseases in which it is possible to use the services of a surrogate mother, as well as the rules for financial settlements between the parties. To ensure that in the future, both from the biological parents of the baby, and from the surrogate mother, there are no complaints, a formal contract is immediately concluded between them, indicating all the rights and obligations of each party.
So, in Russia the future surrogate mother should be in the age range from 20 to 35 years, have at least one natural child, born naturally, and also have good health. In Ukraine, a gestational courier can be any woman no younger than 18 and not older than 51 years, otherwise the requirements are similar.
If you are all well thought out and decided to help another family become parents for a fairly large amount of money, first of all, it is necessary to determine whether you meet the requirements. Then you should choose the appropriate agency, in which you will be explained in detail how to become a gestational courier, and tell about surrogate motherhood.
For the conclusion of the contract it is necessary to prepare the following documents and survey results:
- passport with information on registration;
- birth certificate of your child;
- notarized consent of the spouse, if you are married;
- personal statement and consent to the transfer of the baby to another family;
- blood test for the group and Rh factor;
- HIV, hepatitis B and C and other sexually transmitted diseases;
- clinical and biochemical blood tests, general urine analysis;
- the result of ultrasound of the small pelvis;
- smear on the flora;
- fluorography;
the conclusion of the therapist, psychiatrist, gynecologist and cardiologist about the absence of contraindications.
In order not to face fraud, it is very important to choose the right agency that will help you become a surrogate mother, for example, in Moscow you will be approached by such companies as Sweetchild, Deltaclinic or Nova Klinik. Similar agencies exist in most large cities of Russia and Ukraine, however, before resorting to the services they provide, it is necessary to study the reviews and carefully read the text of the future treaty.
